Bamboo as Reinforcement Material in Concrete Structures: A Review
Resumen
AbstractBamboo is considered to be important building material throughout the world’s tropical and subtropical areas. It is mainly used for housing purposes in rural areas. Bamboo has high strength and low weight, and can be easily worked using simple tools. It is widely recognized as one of the most important non-timber forest resources due to the high socio-economic benefits from bamboo based products. It can replace rebar in certain concrete applications, used as pins in straw-bale construction, to create trusses and other structural members, as decorative elements and has even been used as plumbing. This paper presents the various studies that deal with the use of bamboo as a reinforcement in concrete structures. Keywords: Bamboo, concrete, tensile strength, compressive strengthCite this Article Akshat Dimri, Gaurav Sharma, Anshul Sheokand. Bamboo as Reinforcement Material in Concrete Structures: A Review.
